This file is an introductory starter for the various goodies included in dpkg-dev-el. It does not intend to replace reading the documentation that is made available in the files themselves (or not available at all, except insofar as code is self-documenting). To customize all files in this package, use: M-x customize-group [RET] dpkg-dev-el [RET] Introduction to files in dpkg-dev-el ------------------------------------ debian-bts-control.el provides an interface for composing email messages to the Debian BTS control interface (control@bugs.debian.org). Tab completions works for all possible commands and their options. debian-changelog-mode.el provides a mode for editing debian/changelog files. This mode adds colouring, a few commands to manipulate changelog entries and bug reports, and a nice filling function. This mode can also be used to add colours to buffers visiting the changelogs in /usr/share/doc//changelog.Debian files. debian-copyright.el provides a mode for editing debian/copyright files. This mode adds a bit of colouring and if `goto-addr' is loaded, it will make the URLs clickable. debian-control-mode.el provides a mode for editing debian/control files. This mode adds a bit of colouring, a working filling function (bound to "M-q" by default), tab-completion for adding fields (bound to "C-c C-a" by default), and viewing bugs (bound to "C-c C-b"). readme-debian.el provides readme-debian-mode, a major mode to highlight README.Debian files. -- Peter S Galbraith , Mon Oct 24 21:08:04 2005
